Originally, Fallout 4 “nothing more can be built” is a measure to keep the lag down but bugs could trigger it on occasions. In terms of solutions, you could use the weapon drop trick, scrap items and install mods. You don’t know how to carry out the solutions on your own and could use some help? In that case, you have come to the right place.
“Nothing More Can Be Built” In Fallout 4: Triggers
As mentioned above, Fallout 4 “nothing more can be built” is what developers use to prevent lag caused by the presence of too many objects. One way to determine if you have gone overboard is to check out the size meter bar on the top-right corner of your screen. However, on occasions, bugs could get in the way even though you have yet to reach the building limit. Unless you take action, there is no way you could build more things.
What You Could Do
Use The Weapon Drop Trick
- Step 1: Get to open space then drop all your weapons on the ground.
- Step 2: Turn on settlement Build mode.
- Step 3: Proceed to move dropped weapons to the workshop one by one. Each time you move a wat, the size meter bar is going to reduce so repeat the trick as many times as you like. When the bar is low enough, build to your heart’s content.
Scrap Items
- Step 1: Head to the location where you intend to build.
- Step 2: Locate the item you plan to build in the inventory.
- Step 3: Instead of build, hit scrap then when the item appears, position it to your liking.
Install Mods
None of the above works? In that case, you should resort to mods. At the moment, a lot of mods allow players to overcome the building limit of Fallout and circumvent “nothing more can be built” in the process. By taking advantage of mods, you could let your imagination go wild.
